Description

【0001】
【産業上の利用分野】
本発明は、器具セットを用いた歯根管の穴開け法において、前記器具セットを前記管内に連続的に通す方法及び器具セットに関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
歯根管の穴開けは、歯根孔に達するまで歯根管にきわめて細い器具をはめ込むカテーテル法とよばれる第1工程を有する。この作業は、常に手作業で行なわれる。
【0003】
歯根管の穴広げは、多くの作業を含むが、手作業で行なうこともまた機械駆動式器具を用いて行なうこともできる。この第2の工程のためには、二つの方法を用いることができる。第一の方法は、「セットバック」法と呼ばれ、管の中に直径が増大する一連の器具を通し、直径が大きくなるごとに穴開けの長さを減らしていくものである。この方式は、比較的長時間を要し、歯科医は、自分で行なった作業を観察することができない。第2の方法は、「クラウンダウン」法と呼ばれ、まず歯の冠状部分を開き、次に順次細くなる一連の器具を歯根部まで差し込むものである。
【0004】
この方法を実施することのできる公知の器具セットは、多くの場合、低速で回転する(250ないし500回転/分)ハンドピースに取り付けられ、ニッケル−チタン合金製であリ、これには三種類のものがある。
【0005】
第一の種類は、短い刃の部分に細くて可橈性のあるネックの付いた一連の器具からなり、ネック自身は器具の機械駆動を確実に行なうための手持ち部品に固定されたスリーブに接続される。実効部分の直径は、算術級数的に0.025mmづつ増大する。
【0006】
第二の種類は、長さが16mmの実効部分で長さ1ミリごとに0.04mmの円錐性を示す器具で構成される。この実効部分の後には、器具をスリーブに接続するための円筒部分が直接続いている。実効尖端部の直径の増加率は、各段ごとに29%である。
【0007】
最後の種類は、実効長が16mmで円錐形包絡面の器具からなる。これらの器具は、端部がすべて同じ直径を有し、円錐性は各段ごとに0.05mm増加する。
【0008】
本発明の目的は、一つには、カテーテル法の段階後のための歯根管の新しい穴開け法を提供することであり、もう一つには、公知の方法よりさらに確実で効率的な該方法を実施することを可能にする新しい器具を提供することである。該新しい方法は、また、より迅速で、公知の方法の場合以上の器具を必要とはしない。
【0009】
さらに、該方法を実施するために用いられる器具は、公知の器具では必ずしも可能でなかったより規則的で連続した壁面を示す穴開けを可能とするものである。
【0011】
【課題を解決するための手段】
歯根管に穴を開けるための器具のセットであって、
各器具が、少なくともその実効部分を構成する長さの一部分に切断用のらせん状エッジを有する先細のロッドからなり、
該ロッドは、セットの全ての器具に対し、同じ直径の尖端と器具のハンドルに近い後部での開き角度が、器具の尖端に近い前部での開き角度より大きい円錐を有し、
セットの先器具は、これら先器具の後部の円錐性が、後続する器具になると増加するのに対し、尖端と後部の間にある前部は同一の円錐性を有し、
セットの後器具の前部円錐性は、後続する器具になると増加し、それに対し、セットの後器具の後部の円錐性は後続する器具になると減少する、ことを特徴とする器具のセットにより達成することができる。
【0012】
第2図および第3図において、器具の円錐性の相異を分かりやすくするために、器具の直径は、長さに対して誇張して示してある。
【0013】
第1図に示す器具は、断面が円形でニッケル−チタン合金製のロッド1を有し、該ロッドは、その後部が、器具の機械駆動を確実に行なうためのアングル控えに係合する構成のスリーブ2の中にはめ込まれている。
【0014】
ロッド1は、Lで示す前部にエッジを有する2本のらせん状溝3を有する。該器具のL’で示す長さ約3mmの端部は、D3で示される点で終わっており、D3は、該器具のこの点での直径をあらわすが、らせん状溝3のエッジは、この長さ部分では、該器具が切れないようにまた溝が該器具によって切り取られた歯根の組織の屑を除去する効果しかないように鈍くされている。エッジを有する溝の数は、2本より多くすることができる。
【0015】
D3から6mmの距離L”のところにある、すなわち該器具の尖端から9mmの距離のところにある点D9からは、第2図の1aで示す第一の器具からわかるように、器具の円錐性がわずかに増大している。
【0016】
該器具は、この新しい円錐性を実効部分Lの終わりとなる点D16まで続ける。
【0017】
第2図のセットの1bで示す第2の器具は、D9とD16の間にある部分の円錐性の開きの角度が器具1aのそれより大きい点で第1の器具と異なっている。
【0018】
第2図のセットの1cで示す第3の器具に関しても同様である。
【0019】
これら器具の実効長の点D9から後部の円錐性の差は、第2図から明確にわかろう。第2図では、器具1aの輪郭が器具1bの上に鎖線で示されており。器具1bの輪郭は、器具1cの上に示されている。
【0020】
第2図は、また、器具1a、1b、および1cの3本の器具は、それらの尖端と直径D9の点の間の前部では円錐性が同じであることを示している。
【0021】
セットの1dで示す第4の器具に関しては、その直径D9から前の前部の円錐性が、器具1cのそれより増大している。この器具の後部の円錐性も、器具1cに比して増大しているが、その程度はわずかである。このことは、セットの1eで示す最後である第5の器具に関しても同様で、この器具の前部および後部の円錐性は、器具1cに比して増大している。
【0022】
管内に歯根孔まできわめて細い器具をはめ込む穴開けの第一段階、いわゆるカテーテル法を手動で行なった歯科医は、この器具セットによって、次に、機械駆動されるセットの器具1aないし1eを、器具1aから始めて器具1eまで連続的に利用することができる。
【0023】
このようにセットの異なる各器具を連続的に利用することによって、各器具を用いて、その鋭くない前端部によって頂端まで案内されながら歯根管の特定の部分を広げる漸進的な作業を行なうことができ、本来の管の自然な湾曲からずれたり外れたりするのを避けることができる。
【0024】
最初に穴が開けられるのは、管の冠部分であり、それによって、歯根の破片の最適除去とその後の器具の最適作業条件が確保される。ちなみに、これによって、頂端が齲蝕している歯根組織による感染のリスクは、大幅に減少する。次に、はの中間部分に穴が開けられ、最後に頂端部分に穴が開けられる。
【0025】
器具の尖端部は、その円錐性が3mmの長さに対して例えば2%でエッジに鋭さがなく、そのため頂端部分の端部に無用に穴が開けられることはない。
【0026】
本発明の穴開け法および該方法の実施を可能にする器具セットによって、管により広くしかもより規則的に穴を開けることができ、したがって、管に最適な閉塞条件を確保することができる。最後の器具1eを通すことによって、穴開けの仕上げが行なわれる。
【0027】
このように穴の開けられた歯根管は、公知の器具、とくにいわゆるゲート型の器具が用いられた場合のように表面に添って「階段」を形成するようないかなる不連続部分も示さない。
【0028】
以上説明し図示した例にあっては、セットの器具の円錐性が直径D9の高さの一点でしか異ならない。しかし、一より多い点で、例えば直径D9と器具の尖端から13mmのところにある直径D13の高さのところで円錐性を異ならせることも可能である。
【0029】
同様に、器具の円錐の開きの角度を連続的に変えることによって口広がりあるいはラッパ状の形状の器具を実施することも可能である。その場合には、その表面の母線は、図示して説明した例の場合のように折線で構成されるのではなく、器具の尖端でその中心軸に向かう曲線で構成されることになる。
【0030】
実際には、器具の直径D9より前方にある前部の円錐性は、2%程度で、それより後方にある後部の円錐性は、4.5ないし6%程度ある。
【0031】
セットの器具の数は、図示して説明した例の5個より多くすることも少なくすることもできる。

[Industrial application fields]
The present invention relates to a method and a tool set for continuously passing the tool set through the tube in a method for drilling a root canal using the tool set.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Drilling the root canal has a first step called catheterization, in which a very thin device is fitted into the root canal until the root canal is reached. This operation is always performed manually.
[0003]
Root canal hole expansion involves a number of operations, but can also be performed manually or using a mechanically driven instrument. Two methods can be used for this second step. The first method, called the “setback” method, involves passing a series of instruments of increasing diameter through the tube and decreasing the length of the drill as the diameter increases. This method requires a relatively long time, and the dentist cannot observe the work performed by himself. The second method, referred to as the “crown down” method, is to first open the crown of the tooth and then insert a series of instruments that become progressively narrower down to the root.
[0004]
Known instrument sets capable of carrying out this method are often mounted on handpieces that rotate at low speeds (250-500 rev / min) and are made of nickel-titanium alloy, which includes three types There are things.
[0005]
The first type consists of a series of instruments with a narrow, flexible neck on a short blade and the neck itself is connected to a sleeve fixed to a hand-held part to ensure the mechanical drive of the instrument Is done. The effective portion diameter increases by 0.025 mm in arithmetic series.
[0006]
The second type consists of an instrument that exhibits an effective portion of 16 mm in length and exhibits a conicity of 0.04 mm for every 1 mm of length. This effective part is directly followed by a cylindrical part for connecting the instrument to the sleeve. The increase rate of the effective tip diameter is 29% for each step.
[0007]
The last type consists of a device with an effective length of 16 mm and a conical envelope. These instruments all have the same diameter at the ends and the conicity increases by 0.05 mm for each step.
[0008]
The object of the present invention is, in part, to provide a new method of drilling the root canal after the catheterization stage, and in another, it is more reliable and efficient than known methods. It is to provide a new instrument that makes it possible to carry out the method. The new method is also faster and requires less instrumentation than known methods.
[0009]
In addition, the instrument used to carry out the method allows for the drilling of more regular and continuous wall surfaces than was possible with known instruments.
[0011]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
A set of instruments for drilling holes in the root canal,
Each instrument consists of a tapered rod having a cutting helical edge at least part of the length constituting its effective part,
The rod has, for all instruments in the set, a cone having the same diameter tip and an opening angle at the rear near the instrument handle that is larger than an opening angle at the front near the instrument tip;
The leading instruments of the set increase the conicality of the rear part of these leading instruments when they become subsequent instruments, whereas the front part between the tip and the rear part has the same conicity,
Achieving a set of instruments characterized in that the anterior conicity of the rear instrument of the set increases when it becomes a subsequent instrument, whereas the conicity of the rear part of the instrument after the set decreases when it becomes a subsequent instrument. can do.
[0012]
In FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the diameter of the instrument is exaggerated with respect to the length in order to make it easier to understand the difference in the conicity of the instrument.
[0013]
The instrument shown in FIG. 1 has a rod 1 made of nickel-titanium alloy having a circular cross section, and the rod is configured to engage with an angle retainer for ensuring the mechanical drive of the instrument. It is fitted in the sleeve 2.
[0014]
The rod 1 has two helical grooves 3 with edges at the front indicated by L. The end of the instrument, approximately 3 mm in length, indicated by L ′, ends at the point indicated by D3, where D3 represents the diameter of the instrument at this point, but the edge of the helical groove 3 is In the length portion, the appliance is blunted so that it does not cut and the groove only has the effect of removing root tissue debris cut by the appliance. The number of grooves with edges can be more than two.
[0015]
From the point D9 at a distance L ″ of 6 mm from D3, ie at a distance of 9 mm from the tip of the instrument, as can be seen from the first instrument shown in FIG. Has increased slightly.
[0016]
The instrument continues this new conicity until point D16 where the effective part L ends.
[0017]
The second instrument, shown as 1b in the set of FIG. 2, differs from the first instrument in that the conical opening angle of the portion between D9 and D16 is greater than that of instrument 1a.
[0018]
The same applies to the third instrument shown by 1c in the set of FIG.
[0019]
The difference in the conicity of the rear part from the point D9 of the effective length of these instruments will be clearly seen from FIG. In FIG. 2, the outline of the instrument 1a is indicated by a chain line on the instrument 1b. The outline of the instrument 1b is shown on the instrument 1c.
[0020]
FIG. 2 also shows that the three instruments 1a, 1b, and 1c have the same conicity at the front between their tip and a point of diameter D9.
[0021]
For the fourth instrument, indicated by 1d in the set, the conicity of the front part from the diameter D9 is greater than that of the instrument 1c. The conicity of the rear part of this instrument is also increased compared to the instrument 1c, but to a lesser degree. The same is true for the fifth instrument, which is the last indicated by 1e of the set, and the conicity of the front and rear of this instrument is increased compared to instrument 1c.
[0022]
A dentist who has manually performed the first stage of drilling, in which a very thin instrument is inserted into the canal into the root canal, the so-called catheterization method, is then used by this instrument set to set the machine-driven set of instruments 1a to 1e to the instrument. Starting from 1a, the device 1e can be used continuously.
[0023]
In this way, by successively using different instruments, it is possible to use each instrument to perform a gradual work of expanding a specific portion of the root canal while being guided to the apex by its non-sharp front end. It is possible to avoid deviation or deviation from the natural curvature of the original tube.
[0024]
The first hole is drilled in the crown portion of the tube, thereby ensuring optimal removal of root debris and subsequent optimal working conditions of the appliance. By the way, this greatly reduces the risk of infection by root tissue caries on the apex. Next, a hole is drilled in the middle part and finally a hole is drilled in the top end part.
[0025]
The tip of the instrument has a conicality of 2% for a length of 3 mm, for example, and the edge is not sharp, so that the end of the top end is not unnecessarily perforated.
[0026]
With the drilling method of the present invention and the instrument set that allows the method to be performed, the tube can be drilled wider and more regularly, thus ensuring optimal blocking conditions for the tube. Finishing the drilling is performed by passing the last tool 1e.
[0027]
The perforated root canal does not show any discontinuities that form a “step” along the surface as is the case with known devices, in particular so-called gated devices.
[0028]
In the example described and illustrated above, the conicity of the set of instruments differs only at one point with a height of diameter D9. However, it is also possible to vary the conicity at more than one point, for example at a height of diameter D9 and a diameter D13 which is 13 mm from the tip of the instrument.
[0029]
Similarly, it is also possible to implement a flared or trumpet shaped instrument by continuously changing the opening angle of the instrument cone. In that case, the generatrix of the surface is not composed of a broken line as in the case of the example illustrated and described, but is composed of a curve toward the central axis at the tip of the instrument.
[0030]
In practice, the front conicity ahead of the instrument diameter D9 is about 2% and the rear conicity behind it is about 4.5-6%.
[0031]
The number of instruments in the set can be more or less than five in the example illustrated and described.
